Written by Michael Lambarde on Mar. 21, 2011

Last week, another celebrity couple split — Renee Zellweger and Bradley Cooper. Although it was never confirmed by their reps, who instead opted to say “no comment,” the split seems official and new insight has come in on why the fan-favorite couple decided to break-up. According to Us Weekly, Zellweger “tried to make it work [with Cooper], but in the end it was too hard.” A person close to her adds, “her friends feel bad it ended, but she’s okay.”

As for any early indications that the couple were on the rocks, well, there weren’t any. Recently at an Oscar party on February 26th, the couple seemed happy to people at the party, although they were interacting with other onlookers, and weren’t really together. The source, adds, however that “when they were in the VIP section, they were cute with one another. Bradley seemed very attentive with her.”

This past January, Zellweger decided against appearing at one of the biggest awards ceremony of the year, the Golden Globe Awards, in place of comforting Cooper, who was just dealing with the death of his father.
